Grace's Pumpkin Patch

 Our ward went to a local pumpkin patch that helps raise money for a farm they have here that let's people ride their horses. (I don't know if that's exactly right, but it's something like that.)
I've seen plenty of sand pits, but never a corn pit.  If you look closely those are corn kernels.  Maybe I just need to get out more ;)
 This is a picture of Cole and his new friend Jay just before their turn to ride the horses.  Jay is very much like Cole, ie: likes Star Wars, video games, and Legos, so it has been a perfect fit.  Every morning he asks if he can play with Jay.
 This was Cole's first time on a horse, and he took to it like a natural!
 He loved it!  See, thumbs up :)
 He thought it was great that he got to pedal around in a tractor.  It took some getting used to, though.  I had to help him get unstuck at the first corner.  
The second picture is of him getting all three of his ring tosses on the pumpkin on the first try!!
 I swear to you he was at this "duck race" for at least 30 minutes if not more.
 They did a quick run through the corn maze and were very proud that they found their way out so quickly.
Cole was quite upset that I wouldn't let him buy a pumpkin.  He thought he had found the perfect pumpkin.  (We had already gotten 5 free ones so, no, I'm not a mean mommy.)

It was a lot of fun, and thank you Susan for setting this up for us :)
